As Recount Continues, Torkildsen Picks Up 33 Votes in Race for Congress

By The CRIMSON Staff

The Republican incumbent has picked up nearly three dozen votes as the recount in the race for U.S. representative from the Sixth Congressional District continued yesterday.

Tierney defeated Torkildsen by just 360 votes earlier this month, prompting the incumbent to call for a recount.

On Sunday, Torkildsen picked up 33 votes in a recount of votes cast in Danvers, cutting Tierney's margin to 327 votes, the Secretary of State's Office said.

Recounts were complete by late yesterday afternoon in Amesbury, West Newbury and Rockport, according to a spokesperson in the Secretary of State's Office.

Recounts were also scheduled last night for Boxford and Marblehead.

Votes need to be recounted in 36 communities; 24 were scheduled to be completed by today.

The recount will continue through December 2.

This report was compiled with Associated Press wire dispatches.
